"Unusual ambience for a restaurant, like stepping into a Victorian house. Ordered prawn crackers which were stale and came with no dipping sauce. Chicken satay starters, too salty and bland peanut sauce. Main course ordered, beef massaman curry with sticky coconut rice. Very bland, salty curry with raw potatoes. Rice was ‘wild rice’ which was so sticky it had to be prised apart in chunks. No flavour of coconut at all. Also ordered Thai green curry. Again very bland. If you’re into you’re Thai food as we are then you will be disappointed!"

Maybe the best Thai green curry I’ve ever had, really spicy and I warming !! The spring rolls were crispy and delicious and the service from John was warm, personable and extremely accommodating. We’ll be back in a hurry
Oliver
Myself and my partner had a perfectly pleasant meal here. At first the interrior seemed a bit dated and different. However, the Thai food was very good and enjoyable. If we're ever in the area again, we will definitely return.
Jamie
Eaten here twice in four days. Both meals excellent. The service is efficient and courteous and attentive to detail. The atmosphere is cosy and warm, with guests clearly enjoying the amiable interactions. Thoroughly enjoyable and well priced for couples and groups.

Lovely food. Ordered a bottle of shiraz which is usually a 13% wine. Disappointed to get such a cheap 11% bottle. Very quiet when we arrived. Perhaps could do with some Thai music playing a bit more loudly to give some atmosphere until it fills up. You need to book. Service good.
Eddie
Absolutely brilliant Thai restaurant. The food was fresh and amazing. One of the best Thai restaurants I have ever visited. Definitely the best on the island. 5 stars all round. And highly recommended. The staff were friendly and efficient. I can't recommend this place highly enough.

Really tasty food and reasonably priced including the drinks it is in a prime location as well, which was a nice surprise. Good service although possibly lacking in talking to customers but this may be a language barrier possibly. Nice surroundings, our first visit but we will return.
